Albania in 2050

United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Albania at 2,240,166 in 2050. Compared with 2040, when the projection stands at 2,461,866, that represents a decline of 9.0% over ten years.

With a projected median age of 51.9 years, Albania would have a youth dependency ratio of 17.5 and an old-age dependency ratio of 45.5 per 100 people of working age. This is a constrictive pyramid — its base is narrower than its middle, the signature of sustained low birth rates and population ageing.
